Dan rode Sue Broughtons Island Prospero (Dink)who we had been training since 2007 . Dink the brother of Island Columbus ( Ben ) my horse and we just did the 40km Nov around the Vale of Belvoir.
This is wonderful route takinng in the national route the Jubilee Way through the Belvoir Estate woods along the west way to taking panorama that is the Vale of Belvoir including the historic Belvoir Castle .
The route then follows through the vale villages with some lovely long canters along headland before heading back up a climb to the venue Piper Hole Farm .

Just to let everyone know , unfortunately Daniel and I won't be in the UK to organise this ride this year .
BUT everything is in place if someone would step forward to take it over for one year ... as we will be in the UK next Xmas .
The ride is fairly straightforward and is a great fund raiser for the group .
Its straight forward to organise and Bob the landlord is keen to run it again this year ......
